A Day At the Fair

The fair was recently in town and I took the girls during the day for a few hours, went home for Meagan to nap, and then when Ryan was home, we all went in the evening for a few more hours. It was great, the girls had a great time. Meagan LOVED the animals - didn't matter what kind, she was enthralled with them all. We also chose to go on Friday so Kaitlyn could go on some rides since they were only $2/ride. Meagan wasn't too thrilled just being strapped in the stroller while her sister went on 5 rides, but overall did really well. When we were finished, we were all starving so we went out on a rare occasion to Boston Pizza for supper. Thankfully we were seated amidst lots of families since Meagan was having a difficult time waiting for her food to arrive. And when it did, she was happy to share with Dad :) It was a great day!

Summertime

Finally summer weather has arrived! The girls are enjoying playing outdoors all day at their cousins' house and then relaxing on the deck in the evenings. Think it's time to set up a little pool on the deck for them to splash around in :)

Haircut Time!

Kaitlyn was due for her "annual haircut" as her hairdresser calls it. It's the perfect length - can still tie it back in a ponytail, or just leave it loose and light :)

Preschool Graduation

Kaitlyn graduated preschool this week. After two years with Mrs. Lynnette, she is moving on. Preschool has been so good for her, both socially and developmentally. She will miss sharing a class with her cousin, Alyssa, but she is sooo excited about starting kindergarten next year.

Random - Not so much an update

I'm way too behind on the blogging thing to really catch up. So I am going to follow the example of some of my fellow blogging friends and just keep it simple. If I have something exciting to share, I'll share it. If I have the time - lol. If I have a cute picture to share, I will. Trying to keep everyone updated on everything just stressed me out since I have so much else going on, so if you want to catch up, give me a call or shoot me an email. For now, here are some random pictures of the girls from the last couple months. And of course, I HAVE to say:

GO CANUCKS GO!!!

March Update

Hello out there - if there's anyone that still reads this :)

Life has been crazy busy and we've been dealing with some health issues. I've been suffering from increased fatigue so they sent me for blood tests and confirmed I am B12 deficient, which affects my iron levels, hemoglobin, all kinds of stuff. So I'm back on B12 shots. Right now, once per week until further notice and then hopefully they'll be able to wean me to once every 3 weeks. I received my first shot this Wednesday and it seems today I'm feeling some improvement, despite lack of sleep this week due to Meagan.

Meagan has been in and out of hospital for a few things in the last few months. Last night we were back in the ER again (after being sent directly from the doctor's office yet again) and he highly suspects asthma. She is on 2 inhalers and an antibiotic to try to clear out her lungs, and he warned the blue inhaler may be a permanent feature, but we will need to follow up with our family doctor for more investigation. I'm thankful she's finally getting what she needs and hopeful we can keep her healthy for a while, with the help of her inhaler.

Other than that, Kaitlyn and Ryan are doing great, despite Ryan being super tired as well having to take up the majority of the housework due to my exhaustion. And the kids are calling so I best be putting them to bed. I will try to post more this week, including some updated pics of the girls.
